Just when you thought Major League Baseball’s collective bargaining agreement negotiations couldn’t get any messier, they do.
Things completely fell apart on Tuesday when the league and the player’s association failed to come upon an agreement by their self-imposed 5 p.m. deadline on Tuesday to start the regular season on time.
After things fell apart, Commissioner Rob Manfred canceled the first two series of the season, continuing the lockout. And then he laughed while doing it.
